Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method for maintaining wireless connectivity between a mobile controller and a remote controller, comprising: providing first and second wireless adaptors operatively coupled to the mobile controller and configured to operate independently such that one of the first and second wireless adaptors scans for a new secondary connection between the mobile controller and the remote controller while the other of the first and second wireless adaptors retains an existing primary connection between the mobile controller and the remote controller; operating the wireless adaptors to automatically: i. scan to find available wireless access points; ii. connect to the remote controller through a first wireless access point with the first wireless adaptor and evaluate a connectivity of the connection through the first wireless access point by evaluating first data sent to a first remote server for at least one of latency, packet loss and financial expense of the connection; iii. while retaining connectivity with the remote controller through the first wireless adaptor, connect to the remote controller through a second wireless access point with the second wireless adaptor and evaluate a connectivity of the connection through the second wireless access point by evaluating second data sent to a second remote server for at least one of latency, packet loss and financial expense of the connection, and compare the evaluated connectivities of the first and second wireless adaptors to find a highest evaluated connection and a lowest evaluated connection; and while maintaining connectivity between controller and remote controller, switching, based on comparing the evaluated connectivities of the first and second wireless adaptors, the primary connection from the lowest evaluated connection to the highest evaluated connection while proceeding to continually optimize the connection being used as the primary connection by scanning to find available wireless access points and evaluate connections with the available wireless access points.
